I liked Tiny Bang Story right up until I got to the "fit all the differently shaped bricks in the box" puzzle, which I shamefully couldn't complete and couldn't spot the logic behind. I don't think I've played any sliding tile puzzles on PC, though, except for the very easy portrait puzzles that were also in Tiny Bang Story, so I'll give Cogs a go at some point.

I already owned Avadon. I'd agree that it looks like the most interesting game in the bunch if you don't.

For those outside the US that (understandably) have a hard time keeping track of our made-up shopping holidays, Black Friday is actually next Friday (the 23rd). Lots of stores will be having "Black Friday" sales this week or next, but the biggest stuff should be centered around the 23rd and the weekend following.

About the CKII deal at GamersGate. Someone commented in a thread on the main site that DLC bought there wouldn't work with Steam versions of CKII. Can anyone confirm? GG just sells steam keys for Warlock (another Paradox title) DLC, so it seems strange that they'd restrict CKII.

The DLC from gamersgate definitely won't work with the steam version of CKII. This isn't because it's 'restricted' - It's DRM free - If anything, the reason that they're incompatible is because the steam version is restricted. I think it's great that gamersgate allows people to have the option of getting a hold of the game+DLC DRM free - Anyway, not to worry, head on over to greenmangaming.com where they have 75% off CKII DLC (although some may be sold out at this point).

N.b. I'm not some steam-hating evangelist, i have the steam version myself in fact.

From the blurb on my GG shelf:

"NOTICE: You can only access the DLC within Crusader Kings II through the in-game store.
Only work with GamersGate version of Crusader Kings II "

So yeah confirmed. I believe the GamersGate version of the game looks directly at your GG account to see what DLC you have.

Since it's DRM free, the gamersgate version just enables the DLC which is present in the game's directory. It's the steam version which requires linking between what you have registered to your account and what's present in the directory. That's the reason you can't just plonk the DLC in your steam game folder, and it's because of an additional restriction on the steam version. A minor quibble perhaps, but i think it's an important point.
